Bitcoin Forum

I know this might sound like just another "shitpost", but I want to raise a genuine concern about the noticeable decline in post quality due to campaign quotas, including both low-quality replies and poorly constructed OPs.

Key Issues

Superficial Replies: Many users post replies without fully reading the thread, or even checking if someone else has already provided a similar solution or expressed the same point. This leads to repetitive and shallow contributions that don't add much value to the discussion.

Opinion Overload: While it's valid to share personal opinions, many posts end up as simple "IMO this and that..." statements. Instead of fostering meaningful discussions, it often feels like a spam contest, where the goal is just to hit the post count rather than engage thoughtfully.

Repetitive Topics: For example, this week alone, I've seen three different threads about using VPNs for online casinos. Last week, it was a similar number of threads about unpopular sports betting. These topics seem to cycle through the forum repeatedly, making it hard to find something fresh to contribute to, i know that those topics for a newcomer may be attractive to read, but for those users that already have some time on this sections those post might loks like repetitive shitposting.

The Endless Cycle of "IMO"

One of the my biggest frustrations is seeing top threads that don't aim to reach a conclusion or dive deeper into the topic. Instead, they become endless loops of replies like "I think this..." or "In my opinion that..." with no real effort to advance the conversation. This blocks meaningful talks and fills the forum with junk.

What are your thoughts? How do you balance meeting campaign requirements while contributing meaningfully to the forum? I'd love to hear your perspective

This post would be best appreciated at the meta section and not here. Again if you asked me i would advise to lock this topic as several issues has been raised about gambling post section. If you find any post low quality or low effort you can just report them to moderator at down right hand side.

It is a shitpost. Whats worse is its an AI-generated shitpost.

My immediate though is stop using ChatGPT or Grok to write your posts for you (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5456516.msg64823415#msg64823415). When I see something that is AI-generated, my eyes just glaze over it. Its hard for me to read something when I know the author didn't write it. Why should I bother to read it if they didn't bother to write it?


To OP's credit, he's right, the Gambling board is chock full of unreadable nonsense that contributes nothing of value. Its just that the bar for what passes as "not spam" is so incredibly low over there, its hard to discern what is spam and what is not.
